Immediate Decision Day

Immediate Decision Day (IDD) allows students who are interested in attending Ramapo College to apply and receive an immediate decision on your application. If you are accepted, you have until May 1, 2008 to let us know your decision. This year we will be offering students the opportunity to attend an IDD that is designed to maximize your interaction with faculty from your particular area of interest.

The decision you receive at IDD is non binding. IDD is designed to ease the stress of your senior year and allow students to receive their decision early while experiencing all that Ramapo College has to offer.

In order to be considered for a seat in our IDD Program, you should be in the top 20% of your high school class with a critical reading and math SAT score of 1120 or greater or an ACT composite of 24 or greater and a grade point average of 3.3 or higher.

Immediate Decision Day will give you the time to meet with faculty and staff, tour the campus and receive your decision all in one day.

Merit based scholarships will not be awarded at IDD, though we will evaluate your potential for a scholarship during your visit.

Select the Immediate Decision Day date you wish to attend below and we will contact you with more information. Reservations for Immediate Decision Day must be made online.
